Special halftime show at Bulldog game

Fans attending Saturday's basketball game between Georgia and Mississippi State at Stegeman Coliseum will also be able to see another sport that is growing and gaining popularity.

At halftime, the Shepherd Strikers will put on a display of power soccer, a four-on-four match with the competitors in power wheelchairs.

The game is played with an 18-inch soccer ball and the competitors try to get it into a 25-foot wide goal (which will not be set up on Saturday because of space limitations). Competitors attack, defend and maneuver the ball, while the sport combines the skill of the wheelchair user with the speed and power of the chair itself. Games are made up of two 25-minute halves.
